    That information is old as dirt. That was the figure published in the first few weeks after it's release and it was propelled up to the number one spot on the New York Times Bestseller list. By the beginning of 1987 it was going into it's second printing hardback and 1.5 million paperbacks were already for shipping. Those sold out and somewhere along the way before the 2000 re-release they change the cover of the paperback. That book sold into millions over time. It did not stop at the original 250,000 hardback copies St. Martin's Press had in it's first printing. You're so funny sometimes Roberta. LOL!
